752. Seeing the Whole: Systems Thinking and Sustainable Design (Australia). A talk with Leyla Acaroglu

Leyla Acaroglu is a designer and sociologist working at the intersection of systems thinking, sustainability, and transformative change. She works as consultant and public speaker combining design and systems thinking. This episode explores how systems thinking can help designers understand complexity by looking at relationships, patterns, and connections. It also looks into how circular economy and more-than-human perspectives challenge us to rethink design, responsibility, and our place within larger living systems.

This interview is part of the lists: Australia and Design, Sustainable Design, Design in the public sector, More than human and D&D in English. The lists are how we organise the episodes in this podcast. Inside each lists there might be episodes in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
